Chapter 197: Chapter 197 She’s Actually Engaged

Chapter 197 She’s Actually Betrothed

Jiang Mengyu was dumbfounded. Was this considered proof?

The crowd of classmates was also stunned. Was there such a way to prove a romantic relationship?

Upon hearing Chu Zisong mention expelling the two, Wu Jiangsheng panicked and was about to step forward to argue, but Jiang Mengyu grabbed him.

Speaking to Chu Zisong’s back, Jiang Mengyu said, "Director Chu, I do not admit to having an early romance with Wu Jiangsheng. If you expel me on the grounds of early romance, I hope you can present evidence of it! Otherwise, I will appeal to higher authorities, level by level."

Chu Zisong, hearing Jiang Mengyu’s threat of escalation, snorted from his nose: "Go ahead and appeal if you dare."

Jiang Mengyu then said, "Not only will I appeal, but so will my fiancé. He is from the Gu Family."

Chu Zisong’s back stiffened; he halted, then turned around: "You have a fiancé? And—"

He’s a Gu Family member?

In the crowd, Shen Qi’s face also changed: She’s actually betrothed?

Jiang Mengyu nodded: "Yes, my mother arranged a fiancé for me. His name is Gu Dongxing, a member of the Gu Family. Aside from my fiancé, I have not dated anyone at all.

Yet, you are now trying to label me as being in a relationship with Wu Jiangsheng and expelling me under this pretext, effectively imposing a cuckold’s cap on my fiancé without cause.

Once my fiancé returns from his mission, he will surely sue you for defamation."

Jiang Mengyu was deliberately causing a ruckus; her goal was to use Gu Dongxing’s name to instill some apprehension in Director Chu.

After all, she already had a registered spot in Gu Dongxing’s courtyard, and she did not mind exploiting his identity a bit further.

After all, it’s a waste not to use it, and using it costs nothing.

Her words had Wu Jiangsheng stunned as well: She actually had a fiancé?

The classmates were equally taken aback: Jiang Mengyu had said she was only sixteen, and she was already betrothed? To a factory director no less?

It’s said that high school students shouldn’t date early, but this prohibition doesn’t extend to formal engagements arranged by family elders.

Huaiyu shouted, "You’re talking nonsense. You’ve just been acknowledged, how could your mother possibly have arranged a marriage for you already?"

And to a Gu Family member, at that!

Jiang Mengyu didn’t want to deal with her, but Director Chu said, "Classmate Jiang Mengyu, you should explain to Classmate Jiang Huaiyu. I have some other matters to attend to first."

He couldn’t bring himself to believe it, and a part of him was also afraid.

Wu Jiangsheng’s father may also be a regiment leader, but the military’s connection to local affairs isn’t significant, so he wasn’t concerned. Besides, a regiment leader in his forties is almost out of room for advancement.

But the revelation that Jiang Mengyu’s fiancé was a Gu Family member made him wary, because, being Jiang Mengyu’s fiancé, the man’s age surely wouldn’t be much, not more than thirty at most.

A person under thirty taking the position of factory director at the Gu Family Factory certainly must have a strong backing!

Rather than dread a thirty-year-old factory director, he feared the power that stood behind this young director.

Hence, he commanded Jiang Mengyu to explain herself in detail.

He likewise knew that Jiang Mengyu couldn’t be spouting nonsense, for the Gu Family was not something to joke about.

He also feared Jiang Mengyu might accuse him of defamation, so he simply cleared the way.

Jiang Mengyu inwardly cursed; Director Chu was clearly siding with Jiang Huaiyu. Otherwise, the Director wouldn’t have confirmed her so-called "crime of early romance" without any investigation and sentenced her to "expulsion" without deliberation.
